Sepia is just the right choice for that photo. I rarely use it but might give it a go now ~ Thanks!
ReplyDelete@ Eamon - yup... I wanted to switch other photos to sepia, but the colors are amazing (parasols, elderly woman's hat...)
ReplyDeleteI like the color photos. But the one sepia photo also works.
ReplyDeleteLove that parasol!
ReplyDeleteAwesome!

Fabulous Photography. I liked every one of your photographs. I think you did well on this post.
ReplyDeleteRegarding the bird,
Eastern Towhee:
Pipilo erythrophthalmus
Order: PASSERIFORMES – Family: EMBERIZIDAE
The fossil records shows it in Florida and Tennessee but no records of it being outside of the United States.
Very nice photos. I really like the first one in sepia, it really gives it that old time look.
ReplyDeleteThe colour photos were my favorite since, as you've said, the colours are amazing, and need to be shown.
ReplyDelete@Abe - thanks! I checked the bird info and it seems we don't have anything even close to it here...
ReplyDelete@Clueless in Boston - that's usually the only time I use sepia... or if I want to recreatee the wild wild west scene in the middle of Croatia ;-)
@all - thanks!
